I heard there were several cars stolen during this event, including the Papa John's Camaro.  A reminder to keep your cars safe and secure.

Ya, there were 3 stolen,  66 Vette, 66 Chevelle, and Papa John's 72 Camaro.  I don't know, but I think Papa John's might of been a replica of the original one of he had when he was a kid.  Sounds like they may of found it too, see links below.

They found the truck and trailer but the Camaro was gone.  I'm sure the thieves cased the cars and knew what exactly what they were doing, not just some rookies.

Thanks, that news article was kind of sketchy.  They made it sound like the car was found on the westside.  I agree, sounds like pro's to me.

Not to keep on this subject, but why did one news report say that the Camaro was stolen from a motel in Jefferson Ave in Detroit? That's no where near the cruise.

Ya, I thought that was sort of weird too.  I know they use that car for promotional purposes,  but still you would think they would get a motel some where safer then that, and drive down to the Detroit Papa Johns.  That parking lot looked pretty rough.  On the news the driver said the motel told him to park it there, hmmm.
